Wouldn't that depend on the libraries I use within my programs? What if I needed
to use an Eu library but was written in an OO way? I would likely need to use a
OO programming style to interface with it, correct?
In that case, I would be required to program in that style or re-invent the
wheel by creating a procedural style library. But since I dont understand object
oriented concepts (no matter how hard I to learn) I wouldnt be able port the
library.
Euphoria would become a multi-paradigm language and there would need to be
libraries for each style of programming. This is the kind of bloat that keeps
many of us away from languages like C++ and how alternatives like Bach have
largely faltered.
